As long as you are interested in Macs and handicapped users, are you
aware that Apple has an office for special needs users?  They have
lots of info that you would probably find useful.  Also, every Mac
comes with something called 'easy access' to allow users who can't
type, but who can use a mouth stick (or similar pointing stick) to
get special key combinations that normally require two or more simultaneous
keypresses (ie SHIFT-D, or CONTROL-C).  Easy Access also allows the
numeric keypad to serve as a 'mouse' emulator. 

Good luck with your project.
